Ubuntu 9.10 USB Start-up Disk Creator breaks flash drive
Since updating the Beta and later a clean install of Karmic 9.10, using the USB Startup Creator has caused trouble. I now have 3 unmountable (system doesn't see them) and 1 read-only flash drives. I'm afraid to try any more in case I permanently destroy them too. The permissions of the read-only one are for something unknown and even as root I am blocked.
I see others are having somewhat similar problems.
EDIT:
Solved my own problem. I used gparted to delete and reformat drives. They were formatted as 'boot' and apparently this makes them unreadable. Sorry you wasted time reading this!
